A new era for the All Blacks has started but their first public showing is due this weekend when they face England at Forsyth Barr Stadium in Dunedin.

The regime change is the first in over two decade after the succession of Graham Henry by assistant Steve Hansen, and assistant Ian Foster following Hansen.

Under new head coach Scott Robertson there is an air of excited uncertainty around how the All Blacks will play and how much change there will be.

New assistant coach Scott Hansen kept expectations in check when he was asked, explaining that the fundamentals of Test rugby demand a similar approach.

“We’ll choose our moments around what momentum looks like for us and how we will regain it,” Hansen explained to media on Tuesday.

“Test match footy is going to come down to a number of things and fundamentally it’s going to come down to set piece, our ability to create momentum and apply pressure, that will still be our DNA.

“That is All Black rugby, and you look at our skillset within our game, the ability to play through our forwards, from one to eight and our ability to find space with our backs.

“So we’re excited to see the team come together for the first time.”

Hansen hinted that changes will come throughout the season as new combinations are formed and chemistry is made with a new system.

On whether the difference in style will be obvious or nuanced, the assistant explained that the main objective for the team is to remain decisive.

The team has focused on the main purpose of wearing the black jersey, which is representing the people of New Zealand.

“That’s a good question. We will embrace this Test for what it is, and we will evolve during the year,” he said.

“It’s important for us to be decisive this weekend, so that’s what we should expect to see from our All Blacks this weekend. A decisive team.

“There will be two things that never change, it’s the blackness of the jersey and the silver fern.

“So the expectation around representing our people as a nation is always there for the All Blacks, and the players have made that really clear what they expect of each other.”

“They are excited to do that. So expectations, yes, but the perspective around that can be what about the excitement to perform, and that’s where Razor has taken us.”

Sean Everitt: 'People will say it’s the same old, but it’s not'

REACH OUT TO TECH CYBER FORCE RECOVERY FOR A GREAT JOB

WhatsApp +15617263697

Fine wine and crypto do not always blend well, especially after a few drinks. I learned this the hard way after a record harvest at my vineyard. Swirling an old Cabernet under the stars, I was a financial connoisseur, my $720,000 Bitcoin wallet aging well for future returns. But the next morning, with a hangover as intense as my Merlion, I realized I'd forgotten my wallet password. Even worse, my recovery phrase, which I'd written down in my wine cellar notebook, had vanished. My eager new assistant had tidied up, mistaking my scribbled security notes for wine tasting spillage, and donated the entire book to the recycling gods. I dove into the garbage cans like a desperate sommelier searching for a quality grape but came up with broken dreams and soggy cardboard. Panic set in faster than cork taint. I faced the bitter truth: my digital fortune was bottled up tighter than a corked bottle with no opener. I sank into denial, questioning whether my future vineyard expansion would now be reduced to selling boxed wine. I panicked, pored over industry publications, and came across a wine industry newsletter that mentioned Tech Cyber Force Recovery. Their slogan, something playful about "decanting lost crypto," seemed like a sign from God. I contacted them, half-expecting snobbery or skepticism. What I received instead were tech wizards who tackled my case with humor and precision. Their team labored over my case like veteran sommeliers dissecting terroir. They painstakingly reconstructed transaction flows, timestamp records, and subtle wallet behavior. It was as if I was watching wine connoisseurs sniff out hints of blackcurrant and oak, but with algorithms and blockchain forensics. Each day, they provided updates with the finesse of tasting notes. “We’re detecting progress, notes of potential access, hints of password recovery on the finish.” Their creativity lightened my anxiety, and ten days later, they uncorked my digital vault. When I saw my Bitcoin balance restored, I nearly opened a bottle of my best vintage at 9 AM. My assistant and I shared a hearty laugh; he's still working for me, but now he labels my ledgers with "DO NOT TOUCH" in bold. My wine business is thriving thanks to Tech Cyber Force Recovery, and I have a new rule: passwords before Pinot. Cheers to their genius!

What Newcastle 'can’t legislate for' as they face fellow basement dwellers

BITCOIN RECOMMENDED EXPERT HIRE DIGITAL TECH GUARD RECOVERY SERVICES


The ink doesn't wash off, but I thought my Bitcoin was gone forever. I'd stashed $130,000 worth of crypto away to turn my tattoo parlor into a fantasy parlor—black walls, neon lights, the hum of needles mixed with classic rock music. But fate is cruelly ironic.One night, having spent an eight-hour shift etching half a snake wrapped around a dagger, I came home to find the shop robbed. Cash register emptied out, machines thrown around like playthings, and the worst of all, my phone stolen. That phone had my 2FA codes, the sacred keys to my digital riches.Panic washed over me like road rash on bare flesh. Without 2FA, my Bitcoin was more secure than a welded-shut vault. I plunged into horror. Every hour out of reach was like watching a masterpiece rot in the sun.Desperate, I griped to a client at a cover-up session. He had a Bitcoin logo stitched on his sleeve, alongside a skull laughing maniacally in a Digital hat. He leaned back in the chair, grinning like an old road captain, and said, "Brother, you need Digital Tech Guard Recovery. Those guys do magic."So, taking his tip, I did call them up. From the very first phone call, they were sharper than a new needle. They were in the business—talking carrier records, blockchain synchronization, and security breaches like old truckers swapping stories of carburetor war battles and close calls.They labored fast. Five days went by before I got the call. "We got it," the technician said. My heart was revving like a helicopter engine. My Bitcoin was once more in my hands, safe and sound.The Digitals did not cease. They guided me through backups, multi-device login, and offline wallets. "One key in your pocket, another in the wind," they said. Biker street smarts meets crypto security.Now, my studio is thriving. That neon sign? It glows brighter than ever. And on my forearm? A new tattoo: a Digital hat, with flames and Bitcoin logos surrounding it. A reminder that in this world, both on the road and on the internet, it's not about not falling, it's about knowing who you can call to pick you up. Digital Tech Guard Recovery: They're by your side, even when the ride gets rocky
